F150 Lightning on Order
I have a '23 lariat ER, I don't have BC1.4 yet. My last update was October last year.
Same exact thing for me. I was getting them fast before, now nothing. How can I find out it if I have what is needed for BC1.4? I think I’ve got all recalls done. Plus I was lucky enough to have a bad battery mode too…

The most recent update ruined CarPlay for me. It has now become very unreliable, lots of audio problems, sometimes it flat out doesn't connect unless you connect the cable, and even then it can take a few attempts. Over on the subreddit I'm hearing that I'm definitely not the only one to notice this problem. Seems ike the latest update was a regression.

I thought it was just me. Yeah I switch between carplay and Android auto. And yeah carplay has been disconnecting.

Does anyone know if any newer versions of BlueCruise past 1.0 are available in Canada. Just purchased a year old 2023 Lariat ER and dealer said they spent a couple days doing updates but that only BlueCruise 1.0 is available on the Lightning. I know that is not true as I see many post of receiving 1.4 but wondering if this is a Canada thing. I am getting updates I received a Gateway update today had had 10.1.1 or something like that last week.

If you received 10.1.1, then your truck should be updated enough to be able to receive the BC 1.4 OTA, but there is no way of knowing when they will actually send it. If the dealer did update all the modules, then you already have the software for BC 1.4 but would need to enable the new features yourself with FORScan.

The posts you see are from Early Access members. It has not been widely released in the US.

I do not know if any of these members are from Canada - not sure they can participate in the Early Access Program.

Once it becomes widely available you will see LOTS of posts instead of the few so far. TBD if Canada is included.

EDIT: Your dealer is correct in that they can't update your BC version. As @rugedraw says, they can update modules but that doesn't enable the newer versions of BC.

Thank you I have forscan so will give that a try. Just need to find the codes and I am sure there is a thread here with them.

Early access is not available in Canada which makes sense why I have not seen any Canadian's with the newer version

There's a TSB for this. Go make it someone else's problem and get a loaner while they screw around with it.

I know they don't appear from FDRS but they claimed they got the OTA to come through when I asked. Here's my vin: 1FT6W1EV7NWG*****
Depending on what's on your service order, issue a charge back with your credit card.
